Color Grading vs Split Toning: What's the difference?! (Adobe Lightroom Classic) 

Thanks for watching! Be sure to join the KJ Education Facebook Group! facebook.com/groups/kjeducation

I was so freaked out when I went to edit my wedding from the weekend! The first thing I thought was, "Does Katelyn know about this? I have to talk to her!" And here you are, saving us again! I love you!

I am MIND-BLOWN! Why haven't I used Split Toning (Oooops, I mean "Color Grading") before? Ha! Now I feel like I want to re-edit all of my past galleries for my clients! Complete game changer! Thank you SOOOO much for creating this tutorial for us!

The only problem I had was not knowing to click the arrow to open the sliders. LOL Thanks for the most simple, yet helpful tip ever!

This is one of those things that I've struggled to understand for years, and you made it make sense in a snap! Thank you!

I never understood the power of color grading until now! This changes everything!!

THANK YOU for this video!! I was freaking out just two days ago when this got updated for me because I have sessions to edit and was pretty sure I wouldn’t be able to figure this out! I’m so glad I’m not the only one wondering about this!

I was so pumped when I saw that announced at MAX. It’s a phenomenal tool for video editing and I’m so glad Lightroom has it built in now to achieve similar effects.

I just spent 40+ hours on Lightroom courses after previously using Capture One (Fujifilm user) and am going back to C1 exactly because it's way better at this sort of tools. It even has dedicated skin tone tools. The only thing Lightroom is better at at the moment is its automatic masking features. But advanced editors would rarely actually need those anyway. (Not calling myself an advanced editor here. 😉 )

Sadly I haven’t been working with photos a lot lately so I’m late to this game but just wanted to comment how much I appreciate this overview. It was very helpful for me.

Thank you so much Katelyn for the informative and helpful tutorial on Color Grading! God bless and good luck!

That is great, thank you Kaitlyn x

Amazing, thank you so much for this huge help! I simply lost my mind when the split toning was gone and almost ended up in Arkham Asylum! 😂😂😂

thanks for the detail Kaitlyn! I seem to have been missing that tiny arrow for the longest time!

oh my gosh! Thanks, Katelyn for this. I was editing yesterday and I'm like with the heck is this?! I was freaking out a tad too.

Save yourself some time...skip ahead to 8:00

for video shooters, this is actually very intuitive as its very similar to premier and final cut imo

This is incredibly well done and helpful! Thank you! Also your honesty is awesome. Excited to learn how blending and balance can be utilized as well.

Thanks for the help! Was able to use color grading to mimic a vintage look for a client ♥️

Still trying to figure out lightroom this was super helpful!

Katelyn, this is so helpful! Thank you for a a crystal clear video! You’ve got yourself another subscriber! Best wishes Bart

Thank you so much! I was one of the ones freaking out!!

THANK YOU

THANK YOU! Game changer on the midtones. 😊

Would love if lightroom had a way to make this easier for us colourblind photographers.

Oh my gosh, thank you sooo much! This is super helpful!

Super helpful!!! Thank you Katelyn

Thanks

This color grade is so much easier to work with because it is the same way you would color grade in premier pro

I'm only familiar with this new version on Lightroom. I like your explaination of how to use color grading. The Split Toning panel still exists. What is the difference in Split Toning and Color Grading and why would one be used over the the other?

I just found you and this tutorial. Have you done one on color grading for style across a few images, or as a photographic style? Thanks. I’ll check out your other tutorials. Geoff

This is awesome but also another thing to do while editing😅

what version of lightroom do you use on this tutorial?

Well that’s fun. Thanks for sharing. 🙂

Great work

You're the best!

Thanks so much 👍❤️

how to use color grading starts at 5:30

Great info thanks for sharing!

I’d like to ask if your preset system has been updated with that new color grading feature Because I am willing to buy that system..!!

I have a laptop that I recently upgraded to Windows 10 (it had Windows 7) and then I updated Lightroom and Lightroom went nuts! It would freeze and lag to the point that every action and command was excruciatingly slow. Has anyone else experienced that? I've had four different "fixes" from Adobe and each only fixes it partially or for a short time. It's practically impossible to edit and I went back to a lower version of LR for now so I can work. Just wondered if anyone had any advice!!

Do you use a color checker when you do your shoots?

Arrow comment very helpful, thanks

I'm not having split tone in it😞

Since chatgpt I have been thinking about one thing, wenn is there going to be a AI LR😂

Adobe doesn't give you gift LOL, you are paying for that

So so much talking
